(sorry I'm late guys)

What are the biggest "lies" you were telling yourself before you started this weightloss journey?

#1 that I was drinking lots of water a day. HA! I was the sahara desert before, compared to Niagra Falls now!!

#2 There were other people who were "fatter" than me, so why should I worry?

#3 My size had nothing to do with my health

#4 I hadn't gained weight since I got married (even though my clothes weren't fitting right anymore and I'd gained stretch marks)

That my weight was not affected my health, welfare, or mental stability

That it didn't really matter, and that I could be happy how I was... that looks don't matter, it's the person inside that counts - part of that is true, but looks DO matter when you're as ashamed and disgusted with yourself as I was at my heaviest!!

Great question.

I really hadn't been lying to myself. I look in the mirror everyday and the mirror doesn't lie.

I wasn't much for lying to myself either... maybe a LOT of excuse making, but never lying to myself...
